Client onboarding that stays on your Mac
Mail, clients, invoices, and AI helpers in one calm desk. Your data stays on your computer. Nothing is sent until you approve it.
Free for macOS · Apple Silicon & Intel
How it works
Four steps from install to first approval
01
Install on your Mac
Desk runs on your computer. Your clients, mail, and invoices stay in a local database on that Mac.
02
Connect your mail
Sign in to Gmail or Outlook. Add more than one account when you need them. Sign-ins stay on your Mac.
03
Onboard clients
Keep people, notes, work, and invoices in one place. Match inbox mail to the right client without leaving the desk.
04
Approve before anything leaves
AI helpers can draft replies and payment links. Nothing is sent until you review it in Approvals.
Features
Everything you need to onboard a client
Mail, records, billing, and helpers — without jargon on the main screens.
Gmail and Outlook, without the chaos
Read and send from the accounts you already use. Add another after the first. Sending always waits for your approval.
Work
Clients, boards, and invoices in one desk
A calm place for open work, client notes, and payment links when you connect Stripe — no extra tabs required.
Helpers
ChatGPT and Grok in one click
Set up Codex or Grok with a single button. Sign in once in your browser. Ready-made helpers start off until you turn one on.
Privacy
Local-first by design
Clients, notes, mail, and secrets live on your Mac. There is no Tabswell cloud that stores your desk. Account emails stay blurred until you click them.
Privacy that shows up in the interface
Connected provider emails are masked and blurred until you click them. They hide again after ten seconds or when you click away. Read how Google user data is accessed, stored, and deleted in our Privacy Policy.
AI helpers
Helpers that wait for your approval
Set up Codex or Grok once. Ready-made helpers start switched off.
Nothing is sent until you approve it
Helpers can draft. You review every send in Approvals.

FAQ
Common questions
Where does my data live?+
On your Mac. Desk is a local app with a local database. Mail sign-ins stay on your machine. See the Privacy Policy for how Google and Microsoft data is handled.
Does Desk send email by itself?+
No. Helpers can draft mail, but every send waits in Approvals until you review and approve it.
Which mail providers work?+
Gmail and Outlook. You can connect more than one account. Google sign-in is ready for testing; Microsoft registration is still being finished.
Do I need an internet server?+
Not for everyday use. Mail sync, clients, invoices, and local helpers run on your Mac. A public address is only needed later for things like client intake links from other devices or Google’s public verification.
Is there a Windows version?+
The Mac app is the focus right now. A Windows build is planned later.
How much does it cost?+
Pricing is not published yet. The Mac download link on this page is a placeholder until a release build is ready.
